1.   In accordance with the concessions made in the framework of the World Trade Organisation Uruguay Round  ( 57 ) , a tariff quota is open for exports to Switzerland of dog and cat food of EU origin, subject to the conditions laid down in this Regulation. For that tariff quota, the volume of products and the export tariff quota period are specified in Annex XIII to this Regulation. 2.   Licence applications shall be admissible only where applicants declare in writing that all material used in the manufacture of products covered by their application has been produced entirely within the Union. The applicants shall also undertake, in writing, to provide, at the request of the competent authorities, evidence that those conditions are met, and to accept, where applicable, any checks by those authorities of the accounts and of the conditions under which the products concerned are manufactured. If the applicant is not the manufacturer of the products, it shall present a similar statement and undertaking by the manufacturer in support of his application. 3.   By way of derogation from Article 71(1), the AGREX export licence may be replaced by an invoice or any other commercial document that describes the originating product in sufficient detail to enable its identification.
